not connecting with my target audience – #1

@vera_ratovska That's a big one for most of founders.
Justin Bassett-Green
@vera_ratovska the silver lining there is you'd have two ways to still move forward: pivot to the right target target audience for your product, or pivot to the right product for your target audience

Wrong Product Market fit
Vlad Zivkovic
@iamavalex Same here.
Sandra Idjoski
@iamavalex I think many of us fear this one, it's probably the hardest aspect of building something

Not answering a real problem ! What about you @vladimir_zivkovic ?
Vlad Zivkovic
@devezehugo Not being able to make product market fit.
Andreas Møller
That no one will want to use it :)
Vlad Zivkovic
@andreas_toddle Validate the need before the launch can help.
Andreas Møller
@vladimir_zivkovic absolutely! We have been doing a ton of validation and we have been in closed beta for a couple of months. The feedback is very positive. But the feeling can still be there in the back of your head 😂

QA isn't gd enough
Vlad Zivkovic
@eonpilot Good point, I never thought about that one.

small points of failure that add up to a bad experience
Vlad Zivkovic
@stephen_smith67 Those are the ones we are always on the lookout for.
Justin Bassett-Green
@stephen_smith67 users will forgive most of the small small things if your website/app/cloud/whatever is fast.

Blocker when huge traffic coming in
Vlad Zivkovic
@distartin Yes indeed! But at least you will have the assurance that people like your product with huge traffic 😁

user having to install the software and feel it is a waste of time or lazy, instead they decide to not buy but they end up missing out value of actually what they could have got from the software otherwise
Vlad Zivkovic
@shekhar_iyer That's a tough one I agree, having the barrier of downloading and installing the software is a big step which you need to overcome by offering a really good value. In one psychological research I've read that customers are more likely to skip the shop if there is one step at the doors and would rather enter the shops which are having the flat surface at the front door. But if your software is providing the value that won't stop people from downloading it.
